Forest bathing

 
Had a walk through Mine woods this afternoon.
 
To day this is known as  – “forest bathing” after the Japanese “Shinrin-yoku” meaning “ taking in the forest atmosphere”.
 
It was developed in Japan during the 1980s and has become a cornerstone of preventive health care and healing in Japanese medicine.
 
And now it’s spreading to the UK.
Impressive claims are made for it. On the other hand – you can just enjoy a walk in the woods. I do.
